Tcl Package and Version

Belongs to ::quartus::logic_analyzer_interface

Syntax get_current_state_of_output_pin [-h | -help] [-long_help] -instance_name <instance name>
Arguments -h | -help Short help
-long_help Long help with examples and possible return values
-instance_name <instance name> Name of the Logic Analyzer Interface instance to change
Description

Query the device to get the current state of the output pins of the specified instance. The result is either the bank name or "tristated".

Example Usage 
# Start a new control sequence.
begin_logic_analyzer_interface_control -hardware_name "USB-Blaster \[USB-0\]" -device_name "@1: EP1C20 (0x020840DD)" -file_path "lai_demo.lai"

# Query the output pin state.
puts "Current output pin state of instance auto_lai_0:"
puts [get_current_state_of_output_pin -instance_name "auto_lai_0"]

# Change input bank source to the output pins
change_bank_to_output_pin -instance_name "auto_lai_0" -bank_name "Bank 1"

# Query the output pin state.
puts "Current output pin state of instance auto_lai_0:"
puts [get_current_state_of_output_pin -instance_name "auto_lai_0"]

# Change input bank source to the output pins
change_bank_to_output_pin -instance_name "auto_lai_0" -bank_index 0

# Query the output pin state.
puts "Current output pin state of instance auto_lai_0:"
puts [get_current_state_of_output_pin -instance_name "auto_lai_0"]

# Tristate the output pins
tristate_output_pin -instance_name "auto_lai_0"

# Query the output pin state.
puts "Current output pin state of instance auto_lai_0:"
puts [get_current_state_of_output_pin -instance_name "auto_lai_0"]

# End the control sequence.
end_logic_analyzer_interface_control
Return Value Code Name Code String Return
TCL_OK 0 INFO: Operation successful
TCL_ERROR 1 ERROR: No Logic Analyzer Interface control sequence has been started.
TCL_ERROR 1 ERROR: The specified device is not found.
